Tear your hair out about temporary &#8211; yes it\u2019ll pass, promise &#8211; loss of your rights.<\/p>\n<p>People for f*cksakes, big picture. This. Thing. Kills.<\/p>\n<p>It has killed my friends. It has devastated countries. It is not OUR government\u2019s fault. The opposite. They have been, are being, outstanding.<\/p>\n<p>The lockdown has worked. We are far readier than we would have been. Look beyond the heavy-handed moments, the confusion. This is unprecedented.<\/p>\n<p>Instead remember the people in their thousands who have been working day and night these past weeks to prepare. Professionals you don\u2019t see because they are far too busy preparing to save your life to be moaning about surf time and boredom on Facebook.<\/p>\n<p>Cyril, thank you. So much. Steve and Elmarie would thank you and your team too if they could.<\/p>\n<p>I thought I had a tribe. Maybe I still do. But it\u2019s not on Facebook.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">***<\/p>\n<p>Many South Africans have welcomed Peter&#8217;s post as a &#8220;voice of sanity&#8221;. One said: &#8220;Such a good post! I just could not bear the fall out from last night&#8217;s broadcast. The president and his team are saving LIVES. It is times like these when I want to leave FB but then I\u2019d miss great posts like yours!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Another said: &#8220;Such a thought provoking post, and couldn\u2019t agree more, thank you for this perspective, and also for being that voice in my head helping to drown out all the negativity and expert opinions from people who have suddenly appeared from the cracks overnight.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>South African editor Helen Moffett added: &#8220;I was saying yesterday that the trouble is that lockdown has met the most entitled population in the world &#8212; middle-class (mostly) white South Africans at a moment in history when they do not yet feel vulnerable.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;They&#8217;ve really divided into two camps: some are too busy making soup and delivering food to townships to be on social media (don&#8217;t forget these people &#8212; they give me hope).<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Most of the rest are bored, idle, restive, privileged beyond belief, Olympic whiners, and have ample time to plug into social media. They do not do inconvenience &#8212; they don&#8217;t know how. Above all, they are healthy. They don&#8217;t know what it&#8217;s like to struggle to breathe, to wonder if they&#8217;re going to be that statistic. Almost none of them have yet had to bury a loved one lost to Covid via a Zoom funeral.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Unlike many other countries, lockdown did not coincide with illness and death here. So a lot of folk haven&#8217;t a clue what&#8217;s at stake.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I say this as someone who&#8217;s been seriously, seriously ill during the whole of lockdown, and it completely changes one&#8217;s perspective&#8230;&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><em>This post is published on SAPeople with Peter Frost and Helen Moffett&#8217;s kind permission.
